A Picture of the Turtles I made for Sissy's cookie trays. They are very good. Although I am not crazy about the Trader Joes Belgium chocolate I used. Not chocolaty enough. I will stick with my Aldi German chocolate; both milk and dark mixed in the future.
I need to call my Girlfriend back east to do another Aldi run for me.
It has been a busy week and a lot has happened.
First of all the old shed on the abandoned property is gone and our fence on the side yard is no longer suffering.
The next big news is "the driveway is finished and I can now park in the back of the house and get the car off the Street!
See below!
The new yard took a little beating, but it will come back strong.
Now we must wait for the weather to warm up and then we can start building our path to the patio from the back gate and get the pavers down under the grill.
We also must tackle the side yard with the Hosta situation and still have not quite decided how to solve it. But we will live with the space.
I had a productive week in Sissy's shop, and she is really caught up. Two difficult alterations to do next week, but I will persevere, with Sissy's guidance.
I have been experimenting with Keto bread and pizza dough recipes and am so discourage as they have been a total failure. Almond flour is hard to work with and very expensive, and I have wasted several hours making things that are truly not good.
We love homemade pizza, but the carb content is just too high for the Husb. I have been making his pizza on low card large tortillas, but he wants a thicker crust. So, I am going to try and low carb Naan bread and if that is a failure, I am done!
I will use the almond flour purchased for Keto crackers and mix it with gluten free flour for a friend and make some goodies.
Today I must run to Costco and fill my car with gas, I will also run up to Sissy's for a bit and then home to binge watch the last season of the West Wing. It will be a lazy Saturday, as I do not have to cook dinner, but simply reheat last night's leftover pizza.
Daniel and I do not go out on Valentines Day as we call it amateurs' night, and the Restaurants are packed and the service is awful.
Now I am off to run my errands.
Wishing everyone a wonderful day!
Kay
